Hazards in the workplace
■
Slipping, tripping up and falling are the main causes of injuries in
the workplace. Pay attention to surfaces that may have become
slippery from the use of the compressed air tool and tripping
hazards caused by air or the hydraulic hose.
■
Proceed with caution in unknown surroundings. Hidden hazards
caused by power or other supply lines may be present.
■
This compressed air tool is not suitable for use in explosive atmo-
spheres and is not insulated against contact with power sources.
■
Make sure (e.g. by using a metal detector) that there are no
hidden power, water or gas lines in the location where you are
working.
Hazards caused by dust and vapours
■
The dusts and vapours produced by using the machines for screw
connections can be hazardous to health (e.g. cause cancer, birth
defects, asthma and/or dermatitis); it is essential to carry out a
risk assessment in respect of these risks and to implement corre-
sponding regulatory mechanisms.
■
The risk assessment should include the dust caused by using the
machine and any existing dust that may be raised at the same
time.
■
The compressed air tool is to be operated and maintained in
accordance with the recommendations contained in this manual
to keep the release of dust and vapours to a minimum.
■
The exhaust air should be extracted so that the minimum amount
of dust is raised in an already dusty environment.
■
If dusts or vapours are created, the main priority must be to control
these at the site of their release.
